Wild Baimudan is handpicked from old trees which have grown wild and untended for decades, allowing the specific balance of wildflowers and competing plants to influence the flavor and complexity of their tea.
It comes with a crisp complex texture, an energizing feeling, and big vegetal undertones. The wild vegetal notes are a lovely compliment to rose undertones and a big rocky mineral texture.

Gongfu!
Steeped up for an early morning session over the weekend. It’s a little bit more coarse and astringent than expected, but the overall notes of soothing light to medium bodied Prairie hay mixed with chrysanthemum and cucumber skin are a gentle enough start to the day.

I like white tea, but they typically are either too powerful or too soft. This one started out quite strong, but after the second infusion, it died down, a lot. I used 9g/120ML, but the strength of the tea wasn’t there. Yes, the notes were present, but I had to use full on boiling water to bring them out; which hadn’t helped much with bringing those notes out.
I liked that it started out strong, but I didn’t like that the strength of flavor backed a way after the first steep.
Flavor profile: soft mineral notes, with a slight milkiness to the mouthfeel. I wanted more, but it just wasn’t there.
